HOW TO WIN CHILD CUSTODY WITH THE HELP OF DIVORCE CONSULTATION?
Child custody is one of the most stressful and unpleasant experiences faced by divorced parents. To win your child's custody rights you will have to seek the help of divorce lawyers in UAE.
Spouses can either file for joint custody or sole custody at the time of divorce. In sole custody, the responsibility to look after the child solely rests on a single parent. In most cases, the court grants sole custody rights.
The custody rights rest in the hands of the mother (until a boy reaches 11 years of age and a girl, 13), once the child reaches the respective age, both parents can claim the custody rights of children.
Child custody law in the UAE always looks at the well-being of the children. So let's take a look at the factors that affect child custody: Child's age Health of custodian Financial stability of parent Parent should not have any life-threatening diseases No criminal records Religion
In joint custody, both parents are allowed to look after their children. In rare cases the court grants rights for joint custody. If the parents are expats and their home country law has provisions for joint custody of the child, the UAE permits it on the following conditions: the father and the mother agree on the child’s joint custody they live within reachable distances In such cases, the child will be allowed to live alternately with each of the parents for a certain period of time, which will be arranged by legal consultancy serviceson a weekly or fortnightly basis.
It is recommended to get the assistance of a divorce consultation to draft the parenting agreement. Once the Judge approves the parenting agreement, the parents have to strictly follow the rules and obligations. In case if one parent violates the agreement, the other can file a petition and the Court will take strict action against him/her.
